The heart of a mother.
Her emotions, feelings, soul and passion.
What a tender, delicate, loving and nurturing muscle.
A muscle that can be compassionate and kind but...
also strong, powerful, courageous and full of strength, force and might.
My heart has grown in size and abundance since I became a mother.
Sometimes through choice and sometimes through force.
I have had experiences that have made my heart melt and my heart break.
I have had to be humble and loving and also stand strong with courage and fight.
What a gift and a blessing my kids are.
As I try to teach and train them, I find they are really the ones teaching and training me.
Helping me to be more heavenly in my actions, thoughts and words.
I sure have a long way to go and so much to learn.
But, I know I am not on this journey alone.
I have support from friends, family and a loving Heavenly Father.
There are also many other mothers learning right along with me.
Trying to be the best they can and taking the time to share what they have learned.
I so enjoyed reading what was shared last time we linked up.
It helped me to develop a better 'Mother Heart' as I read about your challenges and joys.
I have decided to call this Linky 'A Mother Heart' because often as mothers the way that we write is straight from the heart. We share our burdens, our desires, our worries and our deepest sorrows and joys. We need to share them to uplift each other and to know we are not alone.
So today I hope you can join in and link up 'A Mother Heart' post.
It can be an old post, a new post and any type of post that relates to being a mother.
I am looking forward to your thoughts and heart felt words xx
That is beautiful...you sound like an amazing mum!
